The Suns have not had a great season in some time. While they have made bold claims for the upcoming season, the consensus on the internet is that they will be bottling yet another season. However, that can easily be discarded as hate talk because it’s not based on anything else but predictions. Their team dynamic looks solid for now. This was further solidified by the 30-year-old.

Adding further to the conversation, Beal is of the opinion that KD and Booker are like-minded people, and having them around on a project as challenging as the Suns, it’s going to be a sweet ride. He also said that he is a fan of their competitive drive and some of their fascinations, such as cars. As per Beal, these qualities allow him to better connect with them.

Going by his recent comments, he is adjusting well within the Suns franchise. It becomes even more relevant if you know about his history with the Washington Wizards.

Beal had been with the Wizards since 2012. After spending 11 years in Washington, he was finally traded earlier this year in June to the Suns. However, he believes that he still has some unfinished business with the Wizards. As “unbelievable” as his time was with the Wizards, he would love to return to accomplish one goal. Beal had the opportunity of becoming the all-time top scorer for the Wizards, as he only trails by 160 points. When Beal manages to break the all-time record, he would want to see his jersey #3 in the rafters.
